[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chandlerweb:
Not sure how, but I now seem to have text reflow. It's a little different in operation but definitely the reflow of android past. I have noticed this on the bbc and theregister web sites.

Just as before, the text is already flowing in the optimized way ready for zooming. However, if I pinch to zoom, then double tap, the text reflows.

I really like this behavior as it's the best of both worlds... The page doesn't needlessly reflow every time I zoom in and out, but I can trigger it by double tapping as required.

Can anyone else confirm this works with them? I am running stock rooted 4.0.2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TareX:
This "Double Tap Reflow" has existed since Froyo. I prefer the constant reflowing which is why I use Opera 10 as my main browser.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] mcvpjd3:
I bought myself a desk dock for my HD2 from ebay - and with it came a free battery. It arrived today so I thought I'd stick in this cheap replacement batter to see if it was any good. I put the battery on charge - it was about 50% full. Later I took it of the charger and went to lunch. After a while I noticed that the battery was back down to about 50%, so I watched it for a few mintes and in the space of about 5 minutes it dropped to 46%. So I though - cheap battery - expected.

Got back to work and put my original battery (which was 100%) back in my phone. When leaving work I noticed that the battery was a lot lower than I expected. Got into the car and plugged in the phone - thats when I noticed that the normal orange light to say my phone is charging changed and was alternating between green and orange. I started up the battery tool and noticed that the Battery current was -300 - and this was while it was on charge. Tried a few reboots, take out battery, Magldr reset to no avail. What I did notice was that when it wasn't on charge there were no LEDS and the battery current was about normal (-100 to -200), as soon as I plugged it into a normal USB charger it went to -300 and the LEDs started alternating again.

Anyone know what this is?

Thanks

how is root desire z with android 2.3.3?

(with apk program is better because i am amature!)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rirozizo:
there's plenty of tutorials over at the android developement section, and the wiki, for rooting your phone... and try to do it the hard way, even if you didn't understand what you are actually doing (like i was ;) )

do it the hard way, because the easy way (a rooting app to easily one click root your phone) has a high risk of bricking your phone (you try to turn it on... nothing appears)...

your choice ;)

SuperOneClick may tell you its rooted, but it won't be.

Others won't work at all I think.

Just follow the wiki guide, its not too difficult and works.

i m use easy root tokit and doriod and z4root apps but no work .

tankyou one body help me
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] estonia:
I'm new too and I managed finally to downgrade, root and install custom root. I followed the first post here written by Kueber. Easy root soft is never good way to go. First learn some basics of ADB here and make sure you install oll the JDK, SDK and Desire Z drivers so you can control your phone from your computer. Then use this root and downgrade instructions. Then install from Market ROM Manager and download whatever ROM you wish and installing that is already very easy. The question is what ROM to use.

Of course don't forget to backup everything before you start messing with your phone.

I got Virtuous v2.0.0 (Android version 2.3.3 & HTC Sense 2.1) so I don't feel much upgrade at the moment except I'm rooted and can use some soft that works only with rooted phone (ClockSync & Screenshot).

If you find better one that suits for DesireZ and doesn't make it slow then let me know;)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prince_Basil:
So I bought an Evo online used and it was running MIUI. There was no backups on the SD card. So would there be any way to go back to stock ark rooted, and still have WiMax? I get a little bit of 4G at my house and use it sometimes so that would be awesome.

I came from an Epic and we never had to do any of this backing up of WiMax keys or whatever. And if we bricked our phone, we could just use ODIN to fix it.

Also, my boyfriend has an Evo 4G also and his phone was rooted and has a stock backup. Would I be able to just move that to my SD card and restore like that?

And lastly, I would like to know the best ROM to flash for the best battery life. I work over 8 hours a day and most of that time I have either 1 bar or in roaming/no signal. So if I can have a ROM that at least stays on until my work day is over with medium use, that would be awesome. Thanks and I hope I can get some help soon.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
I do not recommend using his backup on his evo, you could brick your evo. If you want a stock rom, you can download a stock rooted rom and make a backup. Simply make a backup, and copy it to a pc to backup your keys. if you're on cwm, you'll see wimax.img in the backup, if on amon ra recovery, you have to make an individual backup of wimax. if you need a lot of battery life, I recommend AOSP, CM7, because AOSP >> sense rom battery life. Under volting and under clocking helps as well.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prince_Basil:
Okay, so even though the phone came with MIUI already on it and I have no back up of anything, if I flash a different ROM that has 4G capabilities, will my phone be able to connect to it or am I SOL since there was no backup made?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] {ParanoiA}:
Boot into recovery. Make a backup of just wimax. Keep it in multiple safe places. Flash whatever rom you want. If wimax gets borked, you always have backups to restore.

Support TrevE! Fuh Q CIQ!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingme23:
I understand your question. Yes, chances are 4g will work if you flash a rom that supports it. What recovery is currently on the phone?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prince_Basil:
I think you guys are misunderstanding me. I HAVE NO BACK UP. My phone CAME WITH MIUI. There was NO BACKUP on the SD card. So if I want my phone to have 4G on another ROM, I will need a backup with my WiMax key. So how do I go about getting one? Obviously its backing it up, but like I said before, I'm on MIUI so I can't backup my WiMax key. Am I correct?

I'm new to Evo stuff but I know how to make a Clockwork Mod back up.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prince_Basil:
Umm... The newest CWM. I flashed through Clockwork Mod app. But I have the zip file for AmonRa.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] desertegl:
Id say flash amon ra recovery. Then boot into recovery (power + vol down). Once in recovery you can backup your Wimax keys (even if you're currently using MIUI). Then go to wipe menu and wipe everything except SDcard. Don't reboot just yet, flash the Rom of your choice then reboot and voila.

Ps. I've flashed many many roms and never had an issue.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] desertegl:
Alternatively you can also do a nandroid backup as well before flashing a different Rom.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] desertegl:
No you won't. Just flash the Rom you want (the one with 4G capabilities) and that's it. Only in the event something goes wrong and you loose those keys then they will come in handy (and at this point I don't even know if its possible to impotence* Wimax keys.)

Edit: correction, import not impotence*
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prince_Basil:
Okay cool. Thanks guys. I really appreciate it. My battery life has been really bad with MIUI. Sooooo I'm going to try another one.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious:
Really? When I used miui I got 1day and half but changed it because it bored me

Edit:on moderate use
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
There are a lot of things you can do to save battery life. For one, turn off data if you're not using it. You can still text and make calls. Use WiFi whenever possible.

A better kernel for MIUI is Tiamat 3.3.7 or 4.1.0

As you may have guessed by now, you don't need a back up on your phone.

Also, get rid of CWM and use Amon Ra. It;s just better on the Evo.

Make a Nandroid backup of everything except cache (Arguable) if you ever need to restore to your current setup.

Before you flash any new ROM, use Amon Ra to wipe User Data/Factory reset, then every option under there except SD Card and Battery stats, if you're not fully charged.

If you ever flash a new kernel, just wipe Cache and Dalvik-Cache.

Also, I would find a stock/rooted ROM, flash that first, and then make a nandroid of it. You have to be on a Sense ROM to update Profile and PRL.

There's a LOT of development with the Evo. Far more than the Epic. MAY custom ROMs based on Sense v 2.1, 3.0, 3.5; MIUI, CM ROMs, a lot fo custom Kernels. Make sure if you flash a new kernel it's for your ROM. AOSP (MIUI or CM) or Sense. Also mods. Tons of them. Again, make sure they match the ROM you are running.

There's a link in my signature that will give you a good walk through on flashing (Which I need to update, actually) ROMs on the Evo.

Updating Radios is a good idea, too. But you CAN brick by pulling the battery during the flash or losing power, so be sure you've read the right procedure.

Good luck, read a lot and welcome to a GREAT Phone
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moxlon69:
I don't want to be accused of giving false information, as I am not an expert

on the subject, but generally speaking, your wimax is safe. If I remember,

the majority of the issues with people losing wimax was from trying to flash

an invalid Wimax update, or perhaps the early roms/recoveries messed with

the Wimax partition. Just backing up the wimax keys without the whole

partition is insufficient. Amonra and Clockwork recoveries both support

backing up the Wimax partitions at this point, and, the resulting image should

be around 12mb. I got my evo second hand, late in the game (a couple months

ago), and have since literally flashed the phone probably 50 times, trying out

various combinations, experimental roms, the ICS alpha, etc. and have never

had any issues with losing Wimax. The rom you want to run will largely be

based on your own preference. Coming from an Epic, you will be more familiar

with an AOSP/CM based rom, but you can get good performance and battery

life on a Sense based rom. Running MikG's 2.59 Sense 2.1+3.0 rom, I get

around 30hrs per charge with 6 hours of various usage (texts, emails, wifi and

youtube mostly, with some MP3 music mixed in). I switched to MikG's latest

2.61 rom but have not had it on the phone long enough to test the battery life.

Just remember, when you switch your rom, it's recommended to follow the

guidelines on recalibrating your battery to make sure your battery stats are

correct. I do this every time I flash a new rom, regardless of what type it is.

there are apps on the market to make this task easy, too.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prince_Basil:
Thank you. I appreciate it. Right now I'm running CM7 but my battery life is horrible. And I'm still trying to figure out which ROMs are current and which aren't. I currently have Savaged-Zen kernel. I have Amon Ra. Hmm... idk what else. I just want my battery to last like I hear other people's battery last. Is there like a list where I could see the newest Roms and the most up to date. Thanks.

[HTC EVO 3D] bluephi1914:
How difficult would it be to add a few extra home screens to the EVO 3D? Stock is at 7... I would like to add 3 more.... For a total of about 10.

Is this possible? My phone is rooted and I am currently using "Olympus Trinity XE PRIME" ROM . I am referring to the 7 screens in the thumbnail... i may have the term wrong.

some launchers allow you to add several homescreens and I was wondering if this was possible with the Stock EVO launcher after rooting the phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] Twolazyg:
7 max on stock sense.

[HTC EVO 3D] bailz2506:
Go launcher I think has unlimited.I'm using it now and you can just keep adding screens
[HTC EVO 3D] KB112:
This is one of the reasons I like Android so much. For the longest time I was only using 3 screens. lol The flexibility is fantastic.
[HTC EVO 3D] Waldir Arruda:
At present version, Go launcher only add to nine home screens.

After make a big web research and got no alternative, I've discovered, just by acident, that if you import home screens from other launchers (go prefs/Advanced configs/Copy other laucher home screens - icons) the go launcher will add new home screens.

I've did it up to 16 hscreens. It worked fantastic, justa like the old version of Go launcher.

I hope it's a got tip to share.

Also, not sure if I'm going to put that much more work into this because of the looming Ice Cream Sandwich release for this tablet. A few people have advised me against even starting this theme because of ICS's ever nearing drop. As soon as gnufabio puts out an ICS rom, I'll commence work on a theme for that.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] outerdepth:
I'll give it a whirl!!

Hey, bro. I would like to beta test this. I was going to mention a white them also. Another idea if you feel like it would be a platinum edition (black and silverish). That would look extra tight. Your call, but regardless I would love to test out this theme.

I'm currently testing different versions of ROMS, modems and kernels, trying to find the one best suited to what I need.

What I would find very useful is an app designed to waste battery power in specified ways, IE: WiFi, 3G, Bright screen, playing videos or games, etc.

I'd run these apps on a 100% charged device, and then again for different combinations of different roms/modems/kernels.

Here's engadgets review.

5hrs battery rundown, 28hrs normal usage they're getting.

They say in terms of speed, Galaxy note with exynos still feels faster. But GN browser is of course amazing with lowest sunspider ever.

Camera is a big let down apparently, they're saying its barely better than the 5mp on the Nexus S etc in terms of quality/detail.

Overall though, i'd say the GN is still a beast of a device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Drzfr3shboialex:
It is a beast engadget is just really biased. They find little things of every Android or try making it sound worse look up another review if you wanna see
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shodney:
I agree with most of what they said, but they were a bit hard on the camera imo.

Sure, it's not overwhelming - but just because something isn't overwhelming doesn't mean that it's necessarily underwhelming.

And I love the speed of the browser - it's actually faster than browsing on my laptop :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LeanNSupreme:
I usually tend to agree that Engadget shows a lot of bias and favor Apple, but they did call the Galaxy Nexus the "possibly even the best phone available today, period".
